Re: THE Replacements.

I don't think this set will be too packed. This is the kind of set where the vast majority of people there are gonna be mats fans, because the only people I've met in my life who aren't fans have not listened to them.
I think it could be similar to Blur last year. Which to my memory there was lots of room to move up, but it was still a big enough crowd that i didn't think it was pathetic (see stone roses)

if any of the songs mentioned in the last few posts since my last post are played i think we will all collectively go bananas

I have a feeling this will probably be in the top five of the most "going bananas" moments at the festival. The only acts that could rival it in terms of moments would be Neutral Milk Hotel and OutKast.

Arcade Fire might be a bit diminished because I'm pretty sure a lot of people in the crowd most likely have already seen them. It's been a while since a lot of the other bands have played though, which will increase the losing your shit factor.

Not for me, unfortunately. My son was only 11 in '11 so a full day and night wasn't going to happen. I get sick every time I see the Wake Up video. That's the one non-'Mats song I want to hear.

One of my favorite albums of all time, period. A real coming-of-ager for me back in the day. All tracks are great but Here Comes a Regular, Left of the Dial, Little Mascara, Waitress in the Sky all sta...wait. They're all great. Seeing them and Arcade Fire almost worth the entire price of admission.
